Tiergarten, a cabaret hosted by Kim David Smith and produced by Death of Classical on January 16th, presented a look into the past across several art forms.

1/10 saw a triple-billed concert at Jazz at Lincoln Center featuring Rodney Marsalis, Cantus, and Stephanie Chou. All three acts were quite different yet all were delightful.

In TEHORAH (Hebrew for “pure”), Adrienne Haan commemorates the end of the Holocaust with a show spanning four continents of Jewish music, language and culture.

Death of Classical's crypt sessions continued with a lovely performance by the Parker Quartet, joined by accomplished cellist Jay Campbell. The piece is often described as the accompaniment for a soul’s journey to heaven.

In some ways, a crypt underneath an active cathedral is the perfect place for a concert of liturgical music. As always, though, Death of Classical brought a unique flair to the evening, on top of the already-impressive venue choice.
